Morning talk radio today has lowered my expectation for the Bills' performance tonight. Starting to believe that they'll go vanilla and might rest/rotate some players. If Pittsburgh had lost yesterday I think that they would go all out to lock up the two seed and rest players in week 17 but I'm not sure how game they are to risk injury in the last two weeks of the season to secure one more potential home game with no fans.
I'll predict Allen throws for 175 with a touchdown and 20 yards rushing.
That said, I'd be thrilled to see them instead go all out beserker on the Pats after decades of asswhoopings.
jj watt has been such a huge baby this year. really just pathetic imo. he keeps saying shit like this but he's been playing like shit all year.
Is he wrong though? Let's face it, the Texans suck and underperformed the 7.5 O/U on wins by at least 2.5. And that's if they win next weekend. Otherwise, they underperform by 3.5. That's not the way things were looking heading into the season, but as you know, you guys have made some really questionable personnel moves the last year and a half or so. I didn't understand many of those moves where it almost seemed like you were moving a better player for a knock-off. No hate on Brandin Cooks, but he's not Hopkins. Even if you added in Kenny Stills, they aren't Hopkins. Add in Randall Cobb. They don't equal Hopkins.

Nice. I saw Watt's comments and immediately wanted to know what a Houston fan thought of them.
I don't think there's anything really wrong in what he said
but I see a guy getting paid 15 mil a year to play backup quality end taking easy softballs on 'coach is bad' 'team is bad' but hasn't talked about his own level of play
is calling out guys for not wanting to be here, and leaking he doesn't want the Texans to extend his awful contract (has 2 years left and he'd be going into his mid 30s)
there's definitely a cult of personality around him here, but everyone's calling him a leader for speaking up, but going directly to the media and unloading on players having 5o suit up for 5his dumpster fire organization instead of like idk a team meeting or something isn't a super quality thing to do
"this is a job", yeah if the job is missing like 2 thirds of its hierarchy
Oh look, another NFC East garbage prime time game. Shocker...
The way I understand it is that if Washington wins that game, they win the division and host a game wildcard week. If they lose, the winner of the Giants and Cowboys would take the crown. So while the teams are all pretty underwhelming, it's a meaningful game.
Eagles - Eliminated
Washington - Win and they are in, lose and the Cowboys are in if they win
Giants - in if Washington loses and Giants win by virtue of a 3-way tie at 6-10 as the Giants would have the best divisional record
--------------------------- Weird scenarios:
A) Both games end in ties - Washington is in the playoffs due to sweeping the Cowboys
B) Washington loses, but Giants and Cowboys tie - Cowboys are in

Really wish they flexed Cardinals Rams to prime time or Bears Packers because three of those teams are fighting for two spots but I get why they didn’t do it. If Bears lost, Rams would be in and wouldn’t have much to fight for.

Eagles-Team could be a pretty entertaining game, tbh. Especially if Gibson gets a good workload. Gibson and Hurts are two of the more dynamic young offensive players this season.
I'm just tired of seeing these four teams get prime time slots because its four of the 10 largest cities in the country - they've all been garbage for years. And not in the interesting but can't get it together manner of say the Falcons or this year's Chargers.

The Redskins are the only truly trash franchise in the NFC East. The others are usually varying degrees of competitive. The Cowboys got flexed out of SNF for the first time ever two weeks ago. The game is in that time slot because it has playoff implications and shouldn't see a ton of the marquee players get sat like the handful of other games that might get the spot. It's really not that big of a deal.

Like, far be it for me to pump up the Eagles and Giants but those teams have played the Pats in four Super Bowls and won three of them, or did you forget?

I know enough Giants fans that'll never let me forget those two Super Bowls. All it takes is getting hot/lucky at the right time and they certainly did that. Meanwhile the Eagles team that won were 13-3, so I wouldn't consider them to be the trash they are now. However, three of the last five years the NFC East winner has basically been the first to 9 or 10 wins and gets the 4th seed. This year it's first to 7... maybe. It's not fun to watch.
But don't get me wrong, the Patriots aren't fun to watch this year too. We get to see the last days of Cam Newton in real time. Can't throw it well and everyone sees that QB sneak coming from a mile away. How the hell is Stidham NOT starting tonight? Years of bad drafting are finally starting to show itself, since that veteran core is mostly gone now. And no more GOAT covering up the flaws.

That Cowboys-Eagles game yesterday was pretty fun. I think even a neutral observer would have enjoyed it. Fletcher Cox going down was a huge benefit to the Cowboys, but the defense also did a far better job containing Hurts in the second half. Hurts is a dangerous player. Michael Gallup and CeeDee Lamb finally showed out with Dalton, which was nice to see. Need to get Dak back in there and shore up the defense next year, and I think the Cowboys and Eagles will be fairly respectable teams. Can't say for the Giants. I don't know what to think about Dimes.
I’m glad tonight’s game matters. I’m curious as to what some of the non-bye playoff teams do next week. It’s a potential problem for anyone needing help from another team’s loss. I know the Saints were there once and did what we had to do only to have a team blow off kicking a late FG that was of no consequence to them sending us home for the season. We also once lost a 3 way tie to two teams we had beaten due to 3-way tiebreakers. That’s the kind of problem you can run into when your team needs outside help.
Newton's been disappointing this year. I get that he brings veteran experience and leadership, but he's probably best as a backup slash gadget player now.
I can see them keeping Newton another year if they draft a QB in the first or second round next year. I wouldn't mind if he was like a Taysom Hill or Jack Coletto type, but he's def not a starter.
